"There's a celebration in the jungle! Lights! Decorations! Holiday treats! Everyone loves Christmas. It's such a magical time of year, and all the animals are getting into the holiday spirit. Everyone except for Jim Panzee. After all, rain is pouring down and Jim is sure that everything stinks. And when he eats a green banana, he feels sick! That makes everything worse. Can anything cheer up this grumpy monkey? But then Jim's best friend, Norman, helps him see that if he puts aside his complaints and instead focuses on the wonder all around him, he just might feel like celebrating" -- Back cover.
